I am still managing ten vaguely haiku-like verses a day.
My problem at the moment is tiredness and lack of subjects. I’m not able to much nature at the moment and crows, bare branches and yellow leaves can get boring in the end. If I’m bored it’s likely that readers will be bored too.
The haibun are not going ell either – I’ve written a few but can’t seem to edit and finish them.
It’s not easy finding the time to write as my normal quiet time is after 10 pm and at that time I’m mainly driving Number Two Son to work. Then I try working at midnight, fall asleep in the chair, wake cold, sleep badly, feel tired all the next day and feel guilty at my lack of achievement.
As for the posting challenge – I’m having to resort to quick posts to ensure I manage something each day. Short, quick posts like this one.
I must take stock of my life and my writing.
Off to take Number Two Son to work now.
Today at work we discussed starting a tribute band to take account of our various talents – and so OCD/C was born.
You have to write it like that to make it more obvious. We all laughed at it, though the customers mainly looked blank at us.
Hard to fit writing into a busy life. Seems to me you are doing a great job, even if you do fall asleep in your chair.
I do my best, though I don’t have any editing or book fairs to do, so I lead a comparatively lazy existence.
I think being consistently creative, while rewarding, is very hard work.
It is. 🙂
I like the sound of the band 🙂

Keep going, you are doing fine!
Thank you. I will use this as encouragement…
Me, too! Sometime during most every evening I look back on the day and realize I accomplished hardly anything. Then, later, I think of what I can do the next day. The new day arrives and passes again without getting much accomplished.
In addition, as I get older the days seem to pass quicker. 🙂
I laughed at it…a lot.
🙂 Thank you.
